Rumors and power plays rule this school, and that's just the parents . . . 

Minor Dramas & Other Catastrophes is a dazzling debut about micromanaging parents and overworked teachers, and the students caught in the middle when school dramas spread beyond the campus at Liston Heights high in Minneapolis. 

A wry and cleverly observed debut novel about the privileged bubble that is Liston Heights High, and the fallout for each of them when that bubble bursts, Minor Dramas & Other Catastrophes offers a funny and shocking glimpse into American parenting.

"A cutting and witty examination of modern parenting that excels in suburban relatability, West's debut novel will pique the curiosity of fans of Maria Semple's Where'd You Go, Bernadette." -- Booklist
